In accordance with Articles 234-8 and 234-9(7) of the AMF’s general regulation, Schneider Electric has also asked the AMF for dispensation from the obligation to make a mandatory public tender offer arising from the increase in Schneider Electric’s ownership of IGE+XAO’s share capital and voting rights to above 30% as a result of the sale of IGE+XAO shares by SEISAS to Schneider Electric.
